    摘要: An electronic tag (10) receives a data message (18) that has a wake-up section (20) followed by a session section (22). The interrogation signal which carries the data message encodes the wake-up section (20) differently from the session section (22). A power manager (28) decodes the wake-up section (20) using a very low power decoder (34) that remains energized during a standby state. When the power manager (28) detects a predetermined identification code (26), it controls a switching circuit (32) to energize a controller (30). The controller (30) may then decode, process, and respond to information conveyed during the session section (22). If the power manager (28) does not detect the identification code (26), the controller (30) remains de-energized. The power manager (28) also includes a synchronizer (38) which determines when a preamble (24) is detected, and an ID decoder (40) that determines when the wake-up section (20) conveys the predetermined identification code (26).

    摘要: An analog-to-digital converter stage includes: a comparator and logic circuit having first upper and lower unscaled voltage trip points that are different than upper and lower residue voltage trip points; and a switched capacitor circuit. The comparator and logic circuit is configured prior to an initial residue calculation cycle to compare a magnitude of an unscaled input voltage to the first upper and lower unscaled voltage trip points, to generate an initial output bit, and to generate a voltage scaling and gain control signal. The switched capacitor circuit is configured to sample the unscaled input voltage, to receive a reference voltage, and to receive the voltage scaling and gain control signal for selectively controlling a subset of switches of the switched capacitor circuit to scale the unscaled input voltage sample and reference voltage and generate an initial residue voltage during a single operation of the initial residue calculation cycle.

    摘要: An algorithmic or cyclic data converter uses an RSD stage having a switched capacitor network for efficiently scaling at least one externally supplied reference voltage. A reference voltage is scaled by using capacitor ratios that also function to provide an output voltage used as a residue output of the RSD A/D converter. The residue is used to generate a bit value corresponding to the magnitude of the residue. Two RSD stages cycle back and forth generating a logic value each half clock cycle until the desired bit resolution is achieved. In one form, the RSD stage scales the externally supplied reference voltage only by factors of less than one. In another form, the RSD stage scales the reference voltage by any scaling factor. A reference voltage scaling circuit separate from the RSD stage is avoided.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus are provided for an analog converter. The apparatus comprises a first redundant signed digit (RSD) stage and a configurable block. The configurable block converts to a sample/hold circuit to sample a single ended analog signal. The sampled signal is then scaled, converted to a differential signal and provided to the first RSD stage. The first RSD stage outputs a bit value corresponding to the magnitude of the digital signal. In a next half clock cycle the first RSD stage calculates a residue that is provided to the configurable block. The configurable block is converted to a second redundant signed digit stage and generates a bit value corresponding to the magnitude of the residue provided by the first RSD stage. The first and second RSD stages cycle back and forth generating logic value each half clock cycle until the desired bit resolution is achieved. The configurable block is then converted back to a sample/hold circuit to start another conversion process.
